Its 10 kA breaking capacity at 400 V AC (per EN 60898) and 10 kA at DC (per EN 60898-2) means it safely interrupts fault currents up to that level without welding contacts or cascading upstream. The universal-current design lets it switch AC or DC loads, though at DC you must observe polarity per the marking on the device. Rated for 400 V AC and 440 V DC, with a maximum DC voltage of 500 V, this breaker fits into 230/400 VAC three-phase panels or 440 VDC railway auxiliary circuits. The sealable design lets you lock the toggle position to prevent tampering on critical circuits.

Frequently asked questions
What is the breaking capacity of the 5SY5205-7KK11?
10 kA at 400 V AC per EN 60898, and 10 kA at DC per EN 60898-2. That covers most industrial and commercial fault levels.
Can I use this breaker for DC circuits?
Yes, it's rated for universal current (AC/DC). At DC it's rated 440 V (max 500 V) with a 10 kA breaking capacity. You must observe the polarity marking on the device when wiring DC.
What wire sizes does the 5SY5205-7KK11 accept?
Both solid and stranded conductors from 0.75 mm² up to 35 mm². The combined terminals top and bottom make wiring straightforward.
Where can I buy the 5SY5205-7KK11?
This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
Will the 5SY5205-7KK11 drop into a panel specified around the 5SY3132-6?
Both are 2-pole SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint, so the physical swap is straightforward. The key difference is the current rating and tripping curve — the 5SY5205-7KK11 is 0.5 A C-curve, while the 5SY3132-6 is a different rating. Verify the circuit's required ampacity and coordination before swapping.
